Know Your Steel: The M-84 tank

So its different type, ERA on Degmans can protect from 590 mm penetration of HEAT and kinetic projectiles. Its not about the steel thickness anymore in modern age, However, today`s weapons usually have no issues with that. Specially in urban warfare. Yugoslavia itself had a number of hand-operated anti-tank weapons which could dissolve one of theese within seconds. Also, the M-95 prototypes have a 125mm 9-shell auto-loader, so I think those tanks are just too inferior to what we have currently. Maybe some day..
